Abstract—

This paper reports a process for the growth of zinc–erbium codoped lithium niobate single crystals using a growth charge synthesized from a Nb₂O₅:Zn:Er precursor and Li₂CO₃. Characterization of the LiNbO₃:Zn:Er crystals by high-speed evaluation of the number of scattering centers, piezoacoustic measurements, photoinduced light scattering, and laser conoscopy has demonstrated that they have high optical quality. The proposed technological approaches are aimed at designing functional materials with fundamentally new characteristics for electronics, acoustoelectronics, and integrated, quantum, and laser optics.

掺锌铒铌酸锂单晶的制备与表征

摘要-

本文报道了一种使用由 Nb ₂ O ₅ :Zn:Er 前驱体和 Li ₂ CO ₃合成的生长电荷来生长锌-铒共掺杂铌酸锂单晶的过程。LiNbO ₃ :Zn:Er 晶体通过散射中心数量的高速评估、压电声学测量、光致光散射和激光锥光镜的表征已证明它们具有高光学质量。所提出的技术方法旨在为电子、声电子、集成、量子和激光光学设计具有全新特性的功能材料。
